Contract details for new NC State basketball coach Kevin Keatts

Kevin Keatts was preaching patience at his introductory press conference for an N.C. State basketball program that went 9-27 in the ACC the past two seasons.

If Keatts can push the Wolfpack ahead of schedule, it will be worth a contract extension and extra bonuses, according to the contract he signed with the university on Thursday.

N.C. State fulfilled a Freedom of Information request from The News & Observer on Friday and provided a copy of Keatts’ contract.

Keatts’ annual compensation will be $2.2 million and breaks down to an even split of $1.1 million by base salary and supplemental income (from media and athletic apparel deals). With bonuses, Keatts made about $600,000 last season at UNC-Wilmington.

A trip to the NCAA tournament in any of Keatts’ first three seasons would trigger an automatic one-year extension to his contract and an extra $125,000 in bonuses.
